Falling for You

Part 32

Daniels POV:

I looked at her wide-eyed. Is she serious right now?

"Excuse me", I said. Maybe I heard her wrong. "I think I heard you wrong".

"You didn't hear me wrong. I am not marrying you", she replied, looking straight into my eyes.

"And why is that?", I asked, really wanting to know her answer.

"Because Daniel, you don't need me anymore. You have to share the company with your brother so me being married to you is now just merely an inconvenience"

"What about after? This co-ownership only lasts a month. I might need you after that".

"You can find someone else by then". I pondered the idea. Finding a new girl. Hell no. For some reason, I feel attracted to her. I can't just let her go.

"No", I said, regaining my composure.

"No, what do you mean no", she spoke, raising her voice.

"We are staying together. End of story Blair. Don't bring it up again", I said finishing my apple and walking out the kitchen. I could hear her footsteps behind me.

"Come back here Daniel. We're not done talking yet"

"We are". Before I could reach the first step, I was yanked back by my arm.

"Look at me Daniel. I am serious", she said, her eyes boring into mine.

"So. Am. I", I said through gritted teeth. "Why the sudden change in heart?" I said mocking her. She shot daggers at me with her eyes.

"My personal life is none of your business. I don't want to get married"

"And what will you father think about this little plan of yours?", I said, grinning. I knew that whatever her father was involved in, she couldn't get out of. She then looked down and said nothing.

"Thought so", I said, walking up the stairs. "Try not to make noise. I've had a rough day and need my rest"

I walked into my bedroom, took a cold shower and drifted to sleep.

When did my life get so fucked up?

I mean I could let go of her.

But something inside me tells me not to.

I have this weird attraction towards her.

What do I do about it?

Blairs POV:

That shit head. Why the fuck can't he understand that I don't want to be with him. Is it that hard to let me go? I pondered this question as I sat in the penthouse living room. I must have drifted to sleep when I was woken up with the sound of people laughing. I slightly rose up to find myself sprawled on the couch, still in yesterdays clothes.

"Look guys, sleeping beauty is up", Harvey said, smiling to me, handing me a glass of water.

"Drink up princess. You must be thirsty". I raised my eye brow at him and took the glass of water.

"What time is it", I asked, standing up, fixing my hair and clothes.

"Its ten a.m.", he said, reading his watch. 10 a.m. WAIT 10 A.M??

"Shit I am late", I said, grabbing my heels from the floor.

"Woah there princess. Slow down", Harvey said, putting both his hands on my shoulder.
